Things are looking up. We escaped Kuta, a found a charming,
quiet room to rent in Ubud, set in a lush garden overlooking a tree-filled
ravine. My stomach is cooperating for the most part, Carrie’s leg is healing
nicely. Things have improved over last week! Maybe Bali isn't so bad after all :)
Parts of Ubud are congested, and overly touristy (Eat, Pray,
Love hasn’t helped in that department), but it is still a charming place.
Stepping away from the couple busy streets puts you in the midst of rice
paddies, lush vegetation, and beautiful scenery. Plus, the advantage of it being a tourist magnet means that
there are tons of great restaurants!
